I just get back and look whats coming down the tracks... another fractal puzzle. Its good to be home again!.

 

What's the difference between roast beef and pea soup? Anyone can roast beef.

we are SO THERE!!!! The first game was too much fun, I can't imagine it being any better... guess we'll just have to see.

Welcome back soup, how was europe?

Different than the first game, but still a good time... I hope!

 

To play, I would like everyone to pitch in $3. This money will go towards appetizers for the group at the after-party. You're on your own for beverages icon_wink.gif

 

Things needed:

GPS (duh!)

FRS radio

$3

Some form of transportation

 

The Game will start in a Hillsboro park (I'm thinking a Saturday in July around noon). There is plenty of parking available, but please try to carpool. MAX does go near the park, but it's quite a walk.

The group will be divided into X number of teams. You will be working separately, yet together. The groups will be directed to various spots around Hillsboro where they must complete tasks to collect pieces of a puzzle, and other objects.

When everything is completed, you will locate a cache that contains the location and the money for the after-party.

 

Would a Saturday at noon work for most folks?

Is everyone 'ok' with pitching in $3 for appetizers?

Please post if you are interested! I'll see if I can reserve a space for us... Or we can just take over 'Geo-Riot' style icon_wink.gif

Works for me as long as it is not 7/5. I will have the blues that day...

First off, in an effort to be fair I will pitch in $6 for appetizers (urrp) if I can make it.

 

I will be in Victoria with Grandpa Rocks participating in the Cache Machine on the 12th. The 26th is the company picnic. The 19th my wife is out of town and CrashNBurnGirl has a swim meet until..., well I have all the kids so it may be moot.

 

July 33rd or even better, the 40th (maybe that's into August already icon_eek.gif ) are looking like my most likely Saturdays

Posted

We're very interested, willing to pitch in $ for munchies etc. Alas, we're not available for the next several Saturdays (unless it happens on the 5th). Any possibility it could be August 16 or 23? If not, we'll have to content ourselves with enjoying everyone else's logs.

I second this one. I'll also be at the Blues Festival -- I'll be listening on channel 2/0. Saturdays will be hard, but I'd like to be there and $3 is more than reasonable.

Marathon Man you slay me. That's where i've been all month. The 19th of july is best for me and here's why. On the 5th I will be recovering, nuff said. On the 12th I work sat night so I have to sleep. The 26th I will be on my way to San Dog for some visiting, caching, swimming, and world class margaritas at casa de pico located in bazzar del mundo. Priceless?

Is there a reason that it needs to be on a saturday? I just remember the last Game happening just before sundown. Added a bit of a twist when Fractal (or whoever) spun the car round in the parking lot, then did the drive by cluing, all while wearing a skeleton mask. Ooh... I'm getting chills just thinking of it. Pretty much any day with enough notice, and we'll do everything in our power to make it.

I think the $3 is more than reasonable. As far as the date, I'll do my best to make it whenever it is. My schedule sucks though... seems like it fills up too fast... This one is top priority though. icon_smile.gif

$3 a piece is quite fair, and frankly, we don't mind if you keep it for yourself! After The Game last summer, we sure wouldn't miss it!

 

We're gonna be out of town 7/11-13 for our monthly (at least during the summer) camping/caching weekend with buddies. Sorry, but we won't cancel that even for you, fractal! We have plans to go caching and tooling around on backroads next Saturday 7/5, but that day-trip could be moved if need be...

July 19th is good for me. A little later in the day would be better, but I guess I could feel a little sick on the night before and leave work early to get enough sleep. I'm thinking that 3 bucks is cool.

We'll be caching/camping in the Ochocos August 14-17th. Other than that we're pretty free. Hope we are able to come.

We're waiting with baited breath here! We'll be out of town camping over Labor Day weekend, but are available most other weekends. 8/9 is Trading Caches, 8/16 is The Golden "N". How about 8/23? I haven't seen anyone complain about that date yet.

I think I posted on another topic that the date for Game2 will be 8/23.

 

QM, you and Sassquatch can just wake up early that day... I was thinking of starting it around noon-ish.. maybe lasting about 2 hours.

 

It's quite a bit different than the first Game, but still should be fun and unique... I hope! icon_biggrin.gif

Hate to do this... But I'm going to cancel Game2...

I'm working on something WAY COOL for Halloween and a fun project for pdxgeocaching. That's taking up all my limited resources and budget right now... But trust me.. It will be worth it icon_wink.gif

icon_wink.gif Sorry, had to throw in the quote from possibly one of the dumbest movies ever made. That is, of course, unless you're well into that keg of adult-type beverage, then it's not too bad of a movie.

I'm sorry to see it go, but at the same time I'm somewhat glad because we weren't going to be able to make it anyways. Hopefully if/when it does show up we'll be able to make it now. WAIT! I'm beginning to sense a pattern here...

Yeah.. I know... But this year, Halloween is happening!

A location has been provided.. A general list of events has been worked out... We're just working on a few details.

Only thing that's sort of a bummer is that the location is a house, and we can only have about 35, maybe 40, people at the most. We might put out a "golden ticket" method of deciding who can come... More details as we figure this stuff out!

When I saw the title of this cache - And then .... I thought this was a joke from the movie Dude Where's My Car! Remember when they are at the drive through ordering Chinese food...and the voice keeps saying "and then"?! Or something to that effect.

NO AND THEN!!! NO AND THEN!!!

Actually, when I posted "and then...", that movie was in my head...

I also used to have a cache called "Dude, where's my cache?" heheh

 

I've only seen the movie once... and yeah, it was pretty stupid.. But it was also pretty dadgum funny icon_biggrin.gif
